Should Washington Post be considered a journalistic endeavor?
The WashPo is without question a propaganda piece for the left and Democratic party. It should have to adhere to the laws of any other PAC. It is harmful to a democracy when "Journalists" with a clear political agenda are afforded such protections and status.

Any reasonable person can see they are not in least bit unbiased in their reporting or coverage.
Cities compete Nationally for businesses. They have to. This analogy is like a guy trying convience a girl to marry him. He buys the nicest car a big house has to spend 1/4 of his years salary on her engament ring just to marry her.
So is this female terrorism? Getting bullied by the female gender? It's how the game is played.
Business are LEAVING NY because of the extremely high taxes. There is a huge budget deficit in NY State. The City really NEEDED that economic activity.
What people don't get is fundamental math. It was a slight tax break, So instead of taxing them at 3% they would tax them at 2.85% over 25 years. It wasn't handing them $3B of funds sitting on the table. There are also aren't 25K direct and 50K indirect high paying jobs coming to NYC anytime soon, actually they are losing jobs.
So you end up with nothing. In a city that needs to diversify away from Finance and Real Estate and into Tech you lose.
This is like whining about how a hot girl can demand that a guy has to buy her an expense engagement ring, but at the end of the day that's how the game is played.
We have been doing this for years and this is nothing new. This is news because it has Googles name in it and the AI buzz word.
Simply astonishing what people will write up as an article and it makes as "news"
